Did she try to explain her situation to the standards board and the treasurer? Did she attempt to set up a payment plan?
and again, NO ONE EVER MENTIONED GOING THROUGH DRAWERS EVER EVER ANYWHERE!!!

She promised to fulfill those obligations two years earlier when her dad wasn't dead. A heart attack in his early 50s wasn't exactly something the family had been planning on. Unfortunately, her parents had been paying the bills until then, but he died during the summer, and it was too late to apply for financial aid.
Trust me, the chapter understood the situation. She was a double legacy. They just didn't care to make an exception because they were in a financial black hole.
The lack of empathy in your post gives me a lot of insight into why you seem to think of sisterhood as a "business".
